Grand Ayatollah Sheikh Mirza Jawad Kubar Tabrizi (Persian: جواد كبار تبريزى; 1926 – November 20, 2006) was an Iranian Shia marja'.
His family were not encouraging, since at that time, the government of Pahlavi dynasty was continuously pressuring the clerical class of the country.
[4] He travelled to Qom in 1948, and studied under the thriving seminary under the spiritual guidance of grand Ayatollah Hossein Borujerdi.
To highlight the importance of these mourning rituals, Tabrizi put in his will that his two napkins be buried with him in his grave, so that they may intercede for him on the day of judgement.
[8] In part of the will he wrote directed at his students, he said in regards to mourning:[9]"Do not provide anyone the space to cast doubt and suspicion in the minds of people with the symbols of Imam Husayn.
"Tabrizi believes the attack of Fatimah's house holds a very high religious significance in the Shi'i creed.
He led a large mourning procession in Qom, on the anniversary of her death–in accordance to the third narration– annually, that saw hundreds of thousands of people participating in it, and the attendance of other grand Ayatollahs like Hossein Wahid Khorasani.
[15] Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei, issued a message of condolences in which he characterized Tabrizi as one of the most prominent teachers of the Islamic seminary of Qom.
